“Robert was so great! He had frequent and detailed reports with lots of pictures! It was nice keeping in touch! He was also very accommodating and flexible which gave me so much comfort for Lulu. He certainly went above and beyond! I will be booking him again for sure!”

About: I grew up with dogs of my own and in more recent years have accumulated a few cats as well. I have had some experience working in an animal hospital and have been trusted by family and friends to care for their pets for years. I have a very caring and gentle approach, but can care for pets of all sizes. I have cared for seniors and have been known to spoil pets rotten. Pet care is my sole focus and at this time my schedule is very open. I am available any time and day of the week. Personally, I view animals more as my equal and friend rather than pets. I strive to understand and respect their boundaries and let them be their natural selves rather than expecting them to act as a human. I let my animals see me as their friend who simply shares a home with mutual respect for each other. However, I am very good at following instructions and upholding any rules that any pet owners may have for their homes.

About: I have had animals most of my life and have volunteered for the Humane Society and several animal shelters. I went to school for and worked as a veterinary technician.

I love animals and will treat them with the upmost care I am off on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Sundays and Mondays. I work part time also flexible with animal care parents on those days off if need be. I have an outside kennel, a decent back yard area for little walks and play time. I have an extra inside cage that holds up to medium size animals. They are cleaned every use with kennelsol because animal safety is very important. I will ask what the of dog food you prefer for your pet this way they can stay on any diet they are on. I won’t need any animal bowls unless you wish to bring them for the animal. I will go and get them personal use bowls for their stay and future stays if willing to use services again.

“Yentl is caring, patient, and knowledgeable. She brings a calming presence and is definitely what you would call a 'Pet Whisperer'. Her love and care for animals is top notch, and she excels in all fields of pet care.”


Serenity J.
“Mikey was really amazing when I asked him to look after my dogs while I was planning a move. He was extremely patient and attentive when I told him about some of Haku’s unusual quirks and was willing to follow the specific instructions that I had left him with. Not only that but he also helped me by providing advice when I voiced some of the difficulties I had with how Bori always pulled when I took him walking. He advised me to try out a gentle leader collar when my martingale harness didn’t seem to work and that was genuinely so helpful with lessening how much my dogs pull now. Mikey also gave me a list of dog toys to help manage my dogs’ high energy when I had to work from home which is how i found out about snuffle mats and treat balls and how much my dogs love them. He was always very honest and straightforward with his advice about things I could do at home in order to make sure my dogs were happy and satisfied. And i’m not really a dog expert so it was a relief to have somebody who knew more about dog breeds and their behaviors. Overall, it always felt like he genuinely did care for my dogs’ wellbeing.”
